I thought illumina's couldn't be used with coilovers because
the spring perch is welded on, blocking where the coilovers
would normally go.

yeah your supposed to just cut the bump stops in half so the
struts don't bottom out on them as easily.

You can use illuminas, you just have to cut the perches off,
just like with the blues.  Do like he said above and cut the
bump stops in half.  I wouldn't wait to put the camber kit on
or an allignment done!  I thought I could wait and I had to
replace a brand new set of tires in 3 months!  $350 gone!
:nono
